$", "-", "6", "?", ??
Would that not depend on how your keyboard is arranged? I am using an OmniKey/Plus US English layout all options... I know the Spanish keyboard is very different from mine as is the French (we got a shipment from Dell of French Keyboards!)

My answer would be: *

EDIT: My above puzzle was not quite complete, here is the final version ^_^:
What comes next?? ^o^

6, H, Q, Z,

Hints:
1. There are 2 characters that can come next.
2. The characters may only be alphanumerical.
3. The characters may only be in ASCII (no Unicode).
4. The number 9 might help you, maybe not..
